how about over here in Norn Iron and ireland, great roads and plenty to see and do, also you could make it a round trip and go from dublin to hollyhead and visit wales while you do the trip.
i did all of ireland in the summer on my old bike and it was great crack, plenty of wee twisty back roads to keep the XT happy.

I don't think the Stella Alpina will be happening again, the local government have now closed it to motorized traffic at weekends and local environmentalists have remodeled the top of it somewhat
There are, however, plenty of similar trails through the whole Alpine area. As for similar Rally's I've seen a few covered on ADVrider. For my week long getaway this year I will be covering the four geographically extreme points of Ireland coming back via a spin round The Isle of Man TT route.
